More blows rain down - just a few more, knocking the giant down and out. He groans, tries to get up and ultimately fails. Crystal smiles brightly at that, "I do believe that is your second defeat! Are you ready for your third?"

Meanwhile, the giant leader scowls. "Stonefist, get in there!" he declares, as a giant with no weapon strides forward.

Ebiris

A rousing chant of "Ti-ger! Ti-ger!" is taken up by the crowd as another challenger comes to face against the wrecking machine. Afina merely adopts a lazy slouch as she watches the impending mayhem, raising her hand and calling out, "Begin!" as it drops.

> roll 1d20+12 init
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 31 > [d20=19]

Needless to say, Stonefist wins init.


Before the golem can react, Stonefist charges head in with a huge shoulder-first tackle.

> roll 6d10+23
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 54 > [d10=10,2,4,8,6,1]


The golem takes it right in the middle, knocked back hard from the heavy impact. "C'mon, you pile of stone, show me better than that!" Stonefist demands.

Go.

"Kascha, how about you handle our spell for this round?" Afina asks, confident Tiger has it in hand but figuring a bit of help couldn't hurt. Still, even if he's got a few cracks from that impact Rushing Tiger is undeterred, striking out with a massive flurry of strikes with his great crushing pillars!

But fast as the wind, each blow is avoided. At the same time Kascha says, "I'll save it if the golem gets in trouble. He can really dodge, so emergency repairs might help."

A chance if you wanna do the spell yourself or ask Kascha to do something different.

Ebiris

Afina nods agreeably to that. "This giant definitely seems a cut above the last two."

Stonefist grabs the Rushing Tiger and lifts it up, flipping it upside down and tossing it up. The golem lands right on its head, a rather shark CRACK from it. The giants cheer even louder, while Crystal leans forward and frowns. "I daresay that I dislike this particular giant quite a bit."

Golem's up.

"Have to respect skill when you see it," Afina says ambivalently, before raising her voice to cry out, "Come on Tiger, you can take him!" And how could he not, bolstered by his creators own confidence? Rallying from that abusive wrestling technique, the golem strikes out with more care and less enthusiasm now that he's seen Stonefist's dodging skills for what they are.

With far less power and greater care, Stonefist is beaten like a drum. Blow after blow doubles him over, knocking him to a knee. He tries to rise but a blow to the head fells him, getting him to groan and call, "Enough! Enough!"

Crystal claps at that, "One more!" she murmurs. The giants meanwhile stare on surprise, mutterings about. Afina's sharp ears can hear things about strange golems and machines like the Dark Lady's herself.

<Yuthirin> Afina, giant parasitic rainbow space whale.

"Any idea who this Dark Lady is, Kascha?" Afina asks quietly while the giants deliberate over who to send as their next representative.

"An informal title for the Lady of Loss," Kascha murmurs, "I think you've put the fear of Aurora into them."
<Afina> Imagine a tiny pixie boot stamping on a devil's face.

<Yuthirin> Afina, giant parasitic rainbow space whale.
<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Ebiris

"Shar makes golems as well?" Afina says, humming as she watches the giants continue to mutter. Deciding a little more fear might be called for she speaks up, "Rushing Tiger concedes the next round!" she calls, giving the behemoth an apologetic look. "You've done well Tiger, but Smrgol deserves a chance to shine as well. Smrgol shall be our next champion!" And so a pleased looking multicoloured and feather festooned iron dragon lumbers forward as the behemoth trudges back to join his siblings with earthshaking steps.

Anastasia

"Don't think so," Kascha whispers back, as meanwhile the leader lumbers forward. "So that's my foe, is it? Time to prove our clan's superiority!"

Init.

Anastasia

<Serith> Ko-NitorisDream roll for Serith < 10 > [d20=4]

For the sake of speed, higher mod wins init.


Before Afina's dragon-golem can react, the giant reaches into ap ocket and takes out a tiny stone. He hurls it, becoming a massive boulder as it flies right at its target.

> roll 1d20+33
<Serith> Ko-NitorisDream roll for Serith < 50 > [d20=17]
> roll 10d8+35
<Serith> Ko-NitorisDream roll for Serith < 75 > [d8=3,2,4,3,4,5,7,1,5,6]


The boulder lands right on the back of the golem, a massive crack as it breaks apart into hunks. A hesitant cheer comes up from the remaining giants, watching the golem with unhidden nervousness.

Go.
